This week, we learned of a ride company’s incredibly offensive and ignorant slogan. After multiple failed requests to remove the slogan, our Chief Belief Officer, Nancy Gianni, took to social media and you all showed up! In 24 hours we successfully shut this down despite repeated resistance and denials from both the business and Facebook, who did not see it as being offensive or breaking Facebook community standards! We have more work to do but we are not backing down until we reach our mission of acceptance for all! In the end, they came back with an apology and actually asked for ways to do better. It was a learning moment for all!
